ABSTRACT
Gastric cancer has an important social impact
because it is one of the leading causes of cancer
death. Only 1-3 % of cases have a hereditary
component, which suggests an environmental
origin. Gastric cancer tends to emerge from
gastritis or underlying chronic inflammation
accompanied by hypochlorida, which is usually
caused by Helicobacter pylori. When faced with
a harmful stimulus, the normal epithelium of
the stomach develops chronic atrophic gastritis
that progresses to metaplasia and subsequently
to dysplastic lesions. The symptomatology is
usually very nonspecific and initially the physical
examination is normal. The diagnosis is then
delayed and is performed by means of endoscopy
plus biopsy. Routine screening with gastroscopy is
not recommended even if the epidemiological data
of gastric cancer remains alarming.
